Apple Rumors

Rumors from Apple’s next big iPhone event, which might include an iPhone 11 Pro, new Apple Watch ceramic and titanium models, an update to the cheaper iPhone XR, and more.

Apple could open up iOS, and the feds finally make a case against SBF.

This podcast was recorded before Elon Musk’s Twitter ban extravaganza reached its peak, but we dug into the @ElonJets mess. From Apple, we’ll check out the report that it will allow outside app stores on iOS as well as the hole left by a missing M-series Mac Pro in its desktop lineup.

I tried to recap Sam Bankman-Fried’s transition from media tour to handcuffs, and then we talked more about the golden age of streaming and why David Zaslav’s biggest problem might be in his presentation.

Apple’s mixed-reality headset could start shipping in the second half of 2023.

Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is back with yet another prediction about Apple’s mixed-reality headset and says mass shipments of the device could kick off in the latter half of 2023 as the company deals with “software-related issues.”

This is a bit later than Kuo’s previous prediction, which indicated Apple could start shipping the headset in the second quarter of 2023. Apple’s expected to reveal the headset during an event in January.

Apple’s mixed reality project reportedly has a new name.

According to Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman, a mixed reality headset from Apple could debut in 2023, complete with its own OS and app store.

While that all lines up with what we’ve heard, he also revealed that internally, the platform has changed names, going from “realityOS” to “xrOS,” for “extended reality.”

Whatever they call it, hopefully, it’s more fun to use than Meta’s Quest Pro — see our video review of that device below.

Apple’s iPhone 14 production targets are staying close to the number for the 13.

Bloomberg says that despite Apple internally anticipating a surge in interest ahead of the iPhone 14 launch, it’s now telling suppliers that production plans for 2022 will continue to mirror last year’s numbers.

However, at least one source said the mix has shifted toward more expensive models. Analyst Dan Ives suggests Apple’s iPhone 14 Pro could account for 85 percent of production, compared to 65 percent for the iPhone 13 Pro.

We might not get another Apple event this year.

While Apple was initially expected to hold an event to launch its rumored M2-equipped Macs and iPads in October, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman predicts Apple will announce its new devices in a series of press releases, website updates, and media briefings instead.

I know that it probably takes a lot of work to put these polished events together, but if Apple does pass on it this year, I will kind of miss vibing to the livestream’s music and seeing all the new products get presented.

Sometimes the leaked images are right.

Well done 91mobiles for not only sharing CAD drawings of the Apple Watch Ultra (not Pro, eh hem) two before it was announced, but also for nailing the 49mm case size.
